  • Background: Spanish Kings and Queens at the White Househouse
    Background: Spanish Kings and Queens at the White HouseHouse June 131313,13 ,,, 2018 (Washington, D.C.) — The White House and the Spanish Royal Family have maintained a close relationship for decades, with many Presidents and First Ladies hosting the King and Queen for official and private visits. As background for the upcoming White House visit of King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia of Spain on June 19, 2018, below is a brief history of past visits from the Spanish Royal Family. • On January 26, 1971, President Richard Nixon welcomed Prince Juan Carlos and Princess Sofía to the White House. After welcoming them on the South Lawn, President Nixon met with the Prince, Ambassador to Spain Robert C. Hill, Ambassador of Spain Jaime Arguelles, and Chief of Protocol Emil B. Mosbacher. A dinner in their honor was held that evening in the State Dining Room. After dinner, guests were treated to an East Room performance by Brazilian musician Sérgio Mendes and his band, Brasil 66. • On June 2, 1976, during the Bicentennial celebrations of 1976, President Gerald R. Ford and First Lady Betty Ford hosted King Juan Carlos I and Queen Sofía of Spain. The president told the King: “Many, many American towns and cities, Your Majesty, bear Spanish names. Much of our architecture reflects the distinctive quality of Spanish artistry. Many thousands of American families proudly bear names reflecting their Spanish ancestry.” Among the menu items was mousseline of red snapper, wild rice amandine, and hearts of lettuce salad with Bel Paese cheese. During his visit to the United States, the King addressed a joint session of Congress and afterwards visited New York City.

  • From the Kitchen to the Podium
    “The First Lady: From the kitchen to the podium How the gender equality revolution and the media forged a new political actor in democratic systems” EWA WIDLAK TESI DOCTORAL/2016 DIRECTORS DE LA TESI: DR JAUME GUILLAMET LLOVERAS DR CARLES PONT SORRIBES DEPARTAMENT DE COMUNICACIÓ Dedicat a en Marc, el meu suport més lleial ABSTRACT The first ladyship is nowadays one of the most mediatized, yet scientifically neglected unofficial institutions to be found in contemporary states. It is a figure which raises a number of questions regarding the nature of modern relations between politics and the media, politics and the citizens or the evolution of the public imaginary about womanhood, family and marriage within contemporary societies. The presented PhD thesis contains results of an investigation analyzing the role of the modern first lady and its evolution in Poland, France and Spain. It examines how major social and political processes, such as women’s empowerment and the development of mass media, influenced the figure of the first lady. The study, presented as a thesis by compilation of articles, is composed of four papers, published previously in scientific journals, addressing different issues about the first ladyship. The evidence suggests that the rise of the first lady in the studied countries would not have been possible without a greater visibility of women on the public stage, or without the media spotlight put on this legally unwritten office. Nevertheless, there lays a risk that a gendered outlook on the first ladyship may jeopardize future attempts to empower it. Key words: First ladyship, political communication, public image, media-politics relations, media influence, political celebrity, women’s empowerment, gendered frame, gender stereotypes.
